About this study

Official title: Multidimensional Ultrasound of the Inferior Vena Cava in the Prevention of Hypotension After Induction of General Anesthesia

Based on the preoperative ultrasound detection of various parametric indicators of the inferior vena cava cross-section, including the ratio of the inferior vena cava's long and short axes, cross-sectional area and circumference during two-dimensional and three-dimensional imaging, as well as the changes in respiratory variability of each parameter, we explored the predictive value of IVC ultrasound indicator parameters on hypotension after induction of general anesthesia in elderly patients undergoing elective non-cardiac surgery, screened the sensitive indicators, and calculated the cut-off values.

Being tested
Multidimensional ultrasound of the inferior vena cava

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Changes in the level of Mean Arterial Pressure

    The outcome above should be measured at the time before induction, 1 min after induction, 2 min after induction, 3 min after induction, 4 min after induction, 5 min after induction,10 min after induction

    Measured: Baseline (before induction), 10 min after induction

  2. Changes in the level of Systolic Blood Pressure

    The outcome above should be measured at the time before induction, 1 min after induction, 2 min after induction, 3 min after induction, 4 min after induction, 5 min after induction,10 min after induction

    Measured: Baseline (before induction), 10 min after induction

  3. Multidimensional ultrasound of the inferior vena cava

    The outcome above should be measured at the time before induction

    Measured: Baseline (before induction)

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Changes in the level of Heart Rate

    The outcome above should be measured at the time before induction, 1 min after induction, 2 min after induction, 3 min after induction, 4 min after induction, 5 min after induction,10 min after induction

    Measured: Baseline (before induction), 10 min after induction

  2. Changes in the level of Diastolic Blood Pressure

    The outcome above should be measured at the time before induction, 1 min after induction, 2 min after induction, 3 min after induction, 4 min after induction, 5 min after induction,10 min after induction

    Measured: Baseline (before induction), 10 min after induction

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Elderly Patients Undergoing Elective Non-cardiac Surgery, run by Zhuan Zhang at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Aug 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact zhuan zhang, professor (+8615062791355, zhangzhuancg@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Changes in the level of Mean Arterial Pressure (time frame: Baseline (before induction), 10 min after induction). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 5 Aug 2024.
